There are times we want to play games that simply pass the time mindlessly, but as parents there are also times that we want to take advantage of having our children together to pass along important lessons and concepts. Some might think the two were incompatible—several of our testers admitted that they were of that mindset when they first saw Abundant Harvest. But after playing this game, which finds the perfect mix of fun and thought provoking discussion, they were no longer skeptics, they were sold. They loved how the game was able to successfully spark conversations about right and wrong and handling real-life situations. It’s truly remarkable how a board game actually taught or reinforced principles like honesty, responsibility, commitment, perseverance, trust, respect, and loyalty. It was the considered opinion of parents that whether you play this game at home with your children or introduce it to a class or a pack of Scouts, you are going to be thrilled that you found Abundant Harvest.
